Riccardo is correct: there's currently no way to build the rdkit using PIP.
I had created the project in pypi with the idea that binaries could be
provided that way too. It's been years since I looked at it, but that
turned out to either be too much trouble or plain impossible. I should at
some point get rid of that project in pypi.
so the other alternatives I could think of reduce to building form sources

I can only reinforce how useful and helpful the conda stuff is. Anaconda
itself is really useful (most everything you'd need to do scientific work
in Python) and Riccardo did a great job on the RDKit integration.
